<h1 id="NAME">NAME</h1>

<p>EVP_rc4, EVP_rc4_40, EVP_rc4_hmac_md5 - EVP RC4 stream cipher</p>

<h1 id="SYNOPSIS">SYNOPSIS</h1>

<pre><code> #include &lt;openssl/evp.h&gt;

 const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc4(void)
 const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc4_40(void)
 const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc4_hmac_md5(void)</code></pre>

<h1 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h1>

<p>The RC4 stream cipher for EVP.</p>

<dl>

<dt id="EVP_rc4">EVP_rc4()</dt>
<dd>

<p>RC4 stream cipher. This is a variable key length cipher with a default key length of 128 bits.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="EVP_rc4_40">EVP_rc4_40()</dt>
<dd>

<p>RC4 stream cipher with 40 bit key length.</p>

<p>WARNING: this function is obsolete. Its usage should be replaced with the EVP_rc4() and the EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() functions.</p>

</dd>
<dt id="EVP_rc4_hmac_md5">EVP_rc4_hmac_md5()</dt>
<dd>

<p>Authenticated encryption with the RC4 stream cipher with MD5 as HMAC.</p>

<p>WARNING: this is not intended for usage outside of TLS and requires calling of some undocumented ctrl functions. These ciphers do not conform to the EVP AEAD interface.</p>

</dd>
</dl>

<h1 id="RETURN-VALUES">RETURN VALUES</h1>

<p>These functions return an <b>EVP_CIPHER</b> structure that contains the implementation of the symmetric cipher. See <a href="../man3/EVP_CIPHER_meth_new.html">EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3)</a> for details of the <b>EVP_CIPHER</b> structure.</p>
